I noticed that "list" behaves differently in CLI vs MI. Particularly:
$ ./gdb -nx -q ./testsuite/gdb.mi/mi-cli

Note the list started at line 57. IOW, the program stopped at line
62, and GDB centered the list on that.

Here the list starts at line 62, where the program was stopped.
This happens because print_stack_frame, called from both normal_stop
and mi_on_normal_stop, is the function responsible for setting the
current sal from the selected frame, overrides the PRINT_WHAT
argument, and only after that does it decide whether to center the
current sal line or not, based on the overridden value, and it will
always decide false.
(The print_stack_frame call in mi_on_normal_stop is a little different
from the call in normal_stop, in that it is an unconditional
SRC_AND_LOC call. A future patch will make those uniform.)
A previous version of this patch made MI uniform with CLI here, by
making print_stack_frame also center when MI is active. That changed
the output of a "list" command in mi-cli.exp, to expect line 57
instead of 62, as per the example above.
However, looking deeper, that list in question is the first "list"
after the program stops, and right after the stop, before the "list",
the test did "set listsize 1". Let's try the same thing with the CLI:
(gdb) start
62 callee1 (2, "A string argument.", 3.5);
(gdb) set listsize 1
(gdb) list
57 {
Huh, that's unexpected. Why the 57? It's because print_stack_frame,
called in reaction to the breakpoint stop, expecting the next "list"
to show 10 lines (the listsize at the time) around line 62, sets the
lines listed range to 57-67 (62 +/- 5). If the user changes the
listsize before "list", why would we still show that range? Looks
bogus to me.
So the fix for this whole issue should be delay trying to center the
listing to until actually listing, so that the correct listsize can be
taken into account. This makes MI and CLI uniform too, as it deletes
the center code from print_stack_frame.
A series of tests are added to list.exp to cover this. mi-cli.exp was
after all correct all along, but it now gains an additional test that
lists lines with listsize 10, to ensure the centering is consistent
with CLI's.
One related Python test changed related output -- it's a test that
prints the line number after stopping for a breakpoint, similar to the
new list.exp tests. Previously we'd print the stop line minus 5 (due
to the premature centering), now we print the stop line. I think
that's a good change.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

This PR is about an assertion failure in GDB that can be triggered by
setting "backtrace limit" to a value that causes GDB to stop unwinding
after an inline frame. In this case, an assertion in
inline_frame_this_id will trigger:
/* We need a valid frame ID, so we need to be based on a valid
frame. (...). */
gdb_assert (frame_id_p (*this_id));
Looking at the function:
static void
inline_frame_this_id (struct frame_info *this_frame,
void **this_cache,
struct frame_id *this_id)
{
struct symbol *func;
/* In order to have a stable frame ID for a given inline function,
we must get the stack / special addresses from the underlying
real frame's this_id method. So we must call get_prev_frame.
Because we are inlined into some function, there must be previous
frames, so this is safe - as long as we're careful not to
create any cycles. */
*this_id = get_frame_id (get_prev_frame (this_frame));
we see we're computing the frame id for the inline frame. If this is
an inline frame, which is a virtual frame constructed based on debug
info, on top of a real stack frame, we should _always_ be able to find
where the frame was inlined into, as that ultimately just means
peeling off the virtual frames on top of the real stack frame. If
there ultimately was no prev (real) stack frame, then we wouldn't have
been able to construct the inline frame either, by design. That's
what the assertion catches.
So we have an inline frame, we should _always_ be able to compute its
ID, even if that means bypassing the user backtrace limits to get at
the real stack frame's info. The problem is that inline_frame_id
calls get_prev_frame, and that takes user backtrace limits into
account. Code that wants to bypass the limits calls get_prev_frame_1
instead.
Note how get_prev_frame_1 already skips all checks for inline frames:
/* If we are unwinding from an inline frame, all of the below tests
were already performed when we unwound from the next non-inline
frame. We must skip them, since we can not get THIS_FRAME's ID
until we have unwound all the way down to the previous non-inline
frame. */
if (get_frame_type (this_frame) == INLINE_FRAME)
return get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle (this_frame);
And note how the related frame_unwind_caller_id function also uses
get_prev_frame_1:
struct frame_id
frame_unwind_caller_id (struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
struct frame_info *this_frame;
/* Use get_prev_frame_1, and not get_prev_frame. The latter will truncate
the frame chain, leading to this function unintentionally
returning a null_frame_id (e.g., when a caller requests the frame
ID of "main()"s caller. */
next_frame = skip_artificial_frames (next_frame);
this_frame = get_prev_frame_1 (next_frame);
if (this_frame)
return get_frame_id (skip_artificial_frames (this_frame));
else
return null_frame_id;
}
get_prev_frame_1 is currently static in frame.c. As a _1 suffix is
not a good name for an extern function, I've renamed it.

The completion feature and other features on readline depend on the
readline library. However, readline library is not always used, for
example, running testsuite like
make check RUNTESTFLAGS="--host_board=local-remote-host"
the input stream is not a tty, and GDB doesn't use readline library
as a result.
This patch is to skip tests on completion and readline if
'show editing' is off, which means readline isn't used. Note that
some tests in gdb.base/completion.exp test command complete, which
isn't related to readline, so these tests aren't affected by readline
library. This patch also moves these tests up, run them

Consider the following type for which we would like to provide
a pretty-printer and manage it via RegexpCollectionPrettyPrinter:
typedef long time_t;
Currently, this does not work because this framework only considers
the type's tag name:
typename = gdb.types.get_basic_type(val.type).tag
if not typename:
return None
This patch extends it to use the type's name if the basic type
does not have a tag name, thus allowing the framework to also

Consider the following declarations:
typedef long our_time_t;
our_time_t current_time = 1384395743;
The purpose of this patch is to allow the use of a pretty-printer
for variables of type our_time_t. Normally, pretty-printing sniffers
use the tag name in order to determine which, if any, pretty-printer
should be used. But in the case above, the tag name is not set, since
it does not apply to integral types.
This patch extends the gdb.Type list of attributes to also include
the name of the type, thus allowing the sniffer to match against
that name. With that change, I was able to write a pretty-printer
which displays our variable as follow:

Hi,
I find "has_more" is not checked when a dynamic varobj is created in
proc mi_create_dynamic_varobj. This patch adds the check to
"has_more".

* lib/mi-support.exp (mi_create_dynamic_varobj): Update
comment and add one more argument "has_more".
* gdb.python/py-mi.exp: Callers update.
In gdb.python/py-mi.exp, two varobjs container and nscont are created
when pretty-printing is still not enabled, so they are not dynamic
varobj, IIUC. In this patch, we use mi_create_floating_varobj instead
of mi_create_dynamic_varobj.

* gdb.python/py-mi.exp: Use mi_create_floating_varobj instead
of mi_create_dynamic_varobj.
Boundary length is simpler implemented by means of a pretty
printer. This simplifies users life when examining a bound register.

target_read_memory & friends build on top of target_read (thus on top
of the target_xfer machinery), but turn all errors to EIO, an errno
value. I think we'd better convert all these to return a
target_xfer_error too, like target_xfer_partial in a previous patch.
The patch starts by doing that.
(The patch does not add a enum target_xfer_error value for '0'/no
error, and likewise does not change the return type of several of
these functions to enum target_xfer_error, because different functions
return '0' with different semantics.)
I audited the tree for memory_error calls, EIO checks, places where
GDB hardcodes 'errno = EIO', and also for strerror calls. What I
found is that nowadays there's really no need to handle random errno
values, other than the EIOs gdb itself hardcodes. No doubt errno
values would appear in common code back in the day when
target_xfer_memory was the main interface to access memory, but
nowadays, any errno value that deprecated interface could return is
just absorved by default_xfer_partial:
else if (xfered == 0 && errno == 0)
/* "deprecated_xfer_memory" uses 0, cross checked against
ERRNO as one indication of an error. */
return 0;
else
return -1;
There are two places in the code that check for EIO and print "out of
bounds", and defer to strerror for other errors. That's
c-lang.c:c_get_string, and valprint.c.:val_print_string. AFAICT, the
strerror branch can never be reached nowadays, as the only error
possible to get at those points is EIO, given that it's GDB itself
that set that errno value (in target_read_memory, etc.).
breakpoint.c:insert_bp_location always prints the error val as if an
errno, returned by target_insert_breakpoint, with strerr. Now the
error here is either always EIO for mem-break.c targets (again
hardcoded by the target_read_memory/target_write_memory functions), so
this always prints "Input/output error" or similar (depending on
host), or, for remote targets (and probably others), this gem:
Error accessing memory address 0x80200400: Unknown error -1.
This patch makes these 3 places print the exact same error
memory_error prints. This changes output, but I think this is better,
for making memory error output consistent with other commands, and, it
means we have a central place to tweak for memory errors.
E.g., this changes:
Cannot insert breakpoint 1.
Error accessing memory address 0x5fc660: Input/output error.
to:
Cannot insert breakpoint 1.
Cannot access memory at address 0x5fc660
Which I find pretty much acceptable.
Surprisingly, only py-prettyprint.exp had a regression, for needing an
adjustment. I also grepped the testsuite for the old errors, and
found no other hits.
Now that errno values aren't used anywhere in any of these memory
access related routines, I made memory_error itself take a
target_xfer_error instead of an errno. The new
target_xfer_memory_error function added recently is no longer
necessary, and is thus removed.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.
